DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The following detailed description is merely illustrative and is notintended to limit embodiments and/or application or uses of embodiments.Furthermore, there is no intention to be bound by any expressed orimplied information presented in the preceding Background or Summarysections, or in the Detailed Description section.

One or more embodiments are now described with reference to thedrawings, wherein like referenced numerals are used to refer to likeelements throughout. In the following description, for purposes ofexplanation, numerous specific details are set forth in order to providea more thorough understanding of the one or more embodiments. It isevident, however, in various cases, that the one or more embodiments canbe practiced without these specific details. It is noted that thedrawings of the present application are provided for illustrativepurposes only and, as such, the drawings are not drawn to scale.

Quantum computing is generally the use of quantum-mechanical phenomenafor the purpose of performing computing and information processingfunctions. Quantum computing can be viewed in contrast to classicalcomputing, which generally operates on binary values with transistors.That is, while classical computers can operate on bit values that areeither 0 or 1, quantum computers operate on quantum bits that comprisesuperpositions of both 0 and 1, can entangle multiple quantum bits(qubits), and use interference.

Classical artificial intelligence (AI) and/or machine learning (ML)systems and/or techniques scale well to large datasets. However, thereare limitations to scaling quantum artificial intelligence (AI) and/orquantum machine learning (ML) systems and/or techniques on near termquantum computers primarily due to the time it takes to load data,number of qubits, and/or depth of quantum circuit. As referenced herein,an artificial intelligence (AI) model can comprise a machine learning(ML) model.

In some embodiments, ensemble system 102 canbe coupled (e.g., communicatively, electrically, operatively, etc.) toone or more external systems, sources, and/or devices (e.g., computingdevices, communication devices, etc.) via a network.

According to multiple embodiments, such a network can comprise wired andwireless networks, including, but not limited to, a cellular network, awide area network (WAN) (e.g., the Internet) or a local area network(LAN). For example, ensemble system 102 can communicate with one or moreexternal systems, sources, and/or devices, for instance, computingdevices (and vice versa) using virtually any desired wired or wirelesstechnology, including but not limited to: wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi),global system for mobile communications (GSM), universal mobiletelecommunications system (UMTS), worldwide interoperability formicrowave access (WiMAX), enhanced general packet radio service(enhanced GPRS), third generation partnership project (3GPP) long termevolution (LTE), third generation partnership project 2 (3GPP2) ultramobile broadband (UMB), high speed packet access (HSPA), Zigbee andother 802.XX wireless technologies and/or legacy telecommunicationtechnologies, BLUETOOTH®, Session Initiation Protocol (SIP), ZIGBEE®,RF4CE protocol, WirelessHART protocol, 6LoWPAN (IPv6 over Low powerWireless Area Networks), Z-Wave, an ANT, an ultra-wideband (UWB)standard protocol, and/or other proprietary and non-proprietarycommunication protocols. In such an example, ensemble system 102 canthus include hardware (e.g., a central processing unit (CPU), atransceiver, a decoder), software (e.g., a set of threads, a set ofprocesses, software in execution) or a combination of hardware andsoftware that facilitates communicating information between ensemblesystem 102 and external systems, sources, and/or devices (e.g.,computing devices, communication devices, etc.).

According to multiple embodiments, ensemble system 102 can comprise oneor more computer and/or machine readable, writable, and/or executablecomponents and/or instructions that, when executed by processor 106, canfacilitate performance of operations defined by such component(s) and/orinstruction(s). Further, in numerous embodiments, any componentassociated with ensemble system 102, as described herein with or withoutreference to the various figures of the subject disclosure, can compriseone or more computer and/or machine readable, writable, and/orexecutable components and/or instructions that, when executed byprocessor 106, can facilitate performance of operations defined by suchcomponent(s) and/or instruction(s). For example, ensemble component 108,score component 110, and/or any other components associated withensemble system 102 as disclosed herein (e.g., communicatively,electronically, and/or operatively coupled with and/or employed byensemble system 102), can comprise such computer and/or machinereadable, writable, and/or executable component(s) and/orinstruction(s). Consequently, according to numerous embodiments,ensemble system 102 and/or any components associated therewith asdisclosed herein, can employ processor 106 to execute such computerand/or machine readable, writable, and/or executable component(s) and/orinstruction(s) to facilitate performance of one or more operationsdescribed herein with reference to ensemble system 102 and/or any suchcomponents associated therewith.

In some embodiments, ensemble system 102 can facilitate performance ofoperations executed by and/or associated with ensemble component 108,score component 110, and/or another component associated with ensemblesystem 102 as disclosed herein. For example, as described in detailbelow, ensemble system 102 can facilitate: generating an ensembleartificial intelligence (AI) model comprising a classical AI model and aquantum AI model; and/or computing probability scores of a dataset basedon the ensemble AI model. In some embodiments, such a classical AI modeland/or a quantum AI model can comprise a boosted AI model comprising twoor more AI models. In some embodiments, ensemble system 102 can furtherfacilitate: computing a quantum kernel and/or one or more quantumsupport vectors; computing a classical kernel and/or one or moreclassical support vectors; computing one or more classical supportvectors based on a classical kernel and/or a quantum kernel; training aclassical AI model based on training data; training a quantum AI modelbased on a subset of training data; generating a boosted classical AImodel comprising two or more classical AI models and/or a boostedquantum AI model comprising two or more quantum AI models; and/orcomputing probability scores of a dataset based on a classical AI modelor a quantum AI model.

In some embodiments, to facilitate performance of such operationsdescribed above, ensemble system 102 and/or one or more componentsthereof can employ one or more kernel methods and/or one or more supportvector machines (SVM) in classical and/or quantum AI models. Forexample, as described in detail below, to facilitate generating anensemble AI model comprising a classical AI model and a quantum AI modeland/or computing probability scores of a dataset based on the ensembleAI model, ensemble system 102 and/or one or more components thereof cancompute a quantum kernel using a quantum computer (e.g., via a quantumkernel library). In this example, ensemble system 102 and/or one or morecomponents thereof can export such a quantum kernel matrix to aclassical system to compute support vectors. In this example, ensemblesystem 102 and/or one or more components thereof can employ a radialbasis function (RBF) kernel to compute a classical kernel and/or one ormore support vectors. In this example, ensemble system 102 and/or one ormore components thereof can employ a boosting technique (e.g., aboosting algorithm) to boost one or more classical AI models and/or oneor more quantum AI models. In this example, ensemble system 102 and/orone or more components thereof can employ a boosting technique (e.g., aboosting algorithm) to generate an ensemble AI model comprising one ormore classical AI models and one or more quantum AI models. In thisexample, ensemble system 102 and/or one or more components thereof cancompute probability scores of the classical and/or quantum AI models. Inthis example, ensemble system 102 and/or one or more components thereofcan employ a quantum computer to compute the dot product between unknownand support vectors corresponding to one or more quantum AI models. Inthis example, ensemble system 102 and/or one or more components thereofcan combine probability scores from classical and/or quantum modelsusing a weighting scheme.

In some embodiments, ensemble system 102 can be implemented to generateand/or execute one or more boosted AI models and/or one or more ensembleAI models to discover effective data representation of classical and/orquantum AI learning models. In some embodiments, ensemble system 102 canbe implemented to generate and/or execute a classical AI model toidentify one or more complex training datasets and/or complexclassification tasks that cannot be executed efficiently and/oreffectively by such a classical AI model (e.g., due to computationalcost). In these embodiments, based on such identification, ensemblesystem 102 can generate and/or execute a quantum AI model to classifysuch complex training dataset(s) and/or perform such complexclassification task(s). In some embodiments, ensemble system 102 can beimplemented to apply a fast-match approach using only one or moreclassical AI models or only one or more quantum AI models to reducesearch space (e.g., to reduce 100 classes to 10 classes, therebyreducing the amount of data (e.g., features) that must be input to aquantum computer). In these embodiments, based on such reduction ofsearch space, ensemble system 102 can apply a detailed-match approach bygenerating and/or implementing an ensemble AI model comprising one ormore classical AI models and/or one or more quantum AI models to make afinal decision using high-dimensional computation techniques of aquantum computing device. In some embodiments, ensemble system 102 canscale to large training datasets by generating and/or implementing oneor more classical AI models to process most of the data and generatingand/or implementing one or more quantum AI models selectively based onsome outcomes or subsampling.

According to multiple embodiments, ensemble component 108 can generatean ensemble AI model comprising one or more classical AI models and oneor more quantum AI models. For example, ensemble component 108 cangenerate an ensemble AI model comprising a classical AI model and aquantum AI model by employing boost component 208 described below withreference to FIG. 2 and/or by employing a boosting technique (e.g., aboosting algorithm such as, for instance, algorithm 300 illustrated inFIG. 3). As referenced herein, boosting can comprise a sequentialtechnique which works on the principle of ensemble (e.g., thecombination of one or more individual components to create a singlecomponent). For example, as referenced herein, boosting can comprise asequential technique that can be implemented (e.g., by ensemblecomponent 108) to combine two or more AI models (also referred to aslearners or classifiers) into a single AI model.

In some embodiments, ensemble component 108 can generate an ensemble AImodel comprising a classical AI model and a quantum AI model, where sucha classical AI model and/or quantum AI model can comprise a boosted AImodel that can comprise two or more AI models. For example, ensemblecomponent 108 can generate an ensemble AI model comprising a boostedclassical AI model and a boosted quantum AI model, where such a boostedclassical AI model can comprise two or more classical AI models and sucha boosted quantum AI model can comprise two or more quantum AI models.In another example, ensemble component 108 can generate an ensemble AImodel comprising a boosted classical AI model and a quantum AI model,where such a boosted classical AI model can comprise two or moreclassical AI models. In another example, ensemble component 108 cangenerate an ensemble AI model comprising a classical AI model and aboosted quantum AI model, where such a boosted quantum AI model cancomprise two or more quantum AI models.

In some embodiments, to generate one or more of such ensemble AI modelsdescribed above, ensemble component 108 can implement a boostingtechnique (e.g., a boosting algorithm such as, for instance, algorithm300 illustrated in FIG. 3) to combine one or more classical and/orquantum AI models, where such classical AI model(s) can be trained onthe bulk of available training data and/or such quantum AI model(s) canbe trained on a subset of such available training data. For example,ensemble system 102 and/or ensemble component 108 can employ trainercomponent 206 described below with reference to FIG. 2 to train suchclassical AI model(s) on the bulk of available training data and/ortrain such quantum AI model(s) on a subset of such available trainingdata.

According to multiple embodiments, score component 110 can computeprobability scores of a dataset based on an ensemble AI model. Forexample, score component 110 can compute probability scores of a datasetbased on an ensemble AI model that can be generated by ensemblecomponent 108 as described above. In some embodiments, to facilitatesuch computation of probability scores of a dataset based on an ensembleAI model, score component 110 can compute probability scores of thedataset based on a classical AI model and/or a quantum AI model. Forexample, to facilitate such computation of probability scores of adataset based on an ensemble AI model, score component 110 can computeprobability scores of the dataset based on a classical AI model and/or aquantum AI model of such ensemble AI model. In this example, scorecomponent 110 can compute probability scores of the dataset based on aclassical AI model using one or more classical probability scoringtechniques. In this example, score component 110 can compute probabilityscores of the dataset based on a quantum AI model using one or morequantum probability scoring techniques. In these examples, scorecomponent 110 can combine such probability scores based on generation ofthe ensemble AI model (e.g., via ensemble component 108), therebyfacilitating computation of probability scores of a dataset based on anensemble AI model. For instance, score component 110 can computeprobability scores of a dataset based on a classical AI model, a quantumAI model, and/or an ensemble AI model which can be presented in the formof a table such as, for example, table 800 a depicted in FIG. 8A and/orin the form of a matrix such as, for example, matrix 800 b and/or matrix800 c depicted in FIGS. 8B and 8C, respectively.

FIG. 2 illustrates a block diagram of an example, non-limiting system200 that can facilitate a classical and quantum ensemble artificialintelligence (AI) model in accordance with one or more embodimentsdescribed herein. Repetitive description of like elements and/orprocesses employed in respective embodiments is omitted for sake ofbrevity. In some embodiments, system 200 can comprise ensemble system102. In some embodiments, ensemble system 102 can comprise a quantumcomputing component 202, a classical computing component 204, a trainercomponent 206, and/or a boost component 208.

According to multiple embodiments, quantum computing component 202 cancomprise a quantum computing device including, but not limited to, aquantum computer, a quantum processor, a quantum circuit, asuperconducting circuit, a simulated quantum computer (e.g., softwareexecuted on a classical computer that simulates one or more operationsof a quantum computer), and/or another quantum computing device. In someembodiments, quantum computing component 202 can compute a quantumkernel and/or one or more quantum support vectors. In some embodiments,as described above with reference to FIG. 1, ensemble system 102 and/orone or more components thereof can employ one or more kernel methodsand/or one or more support vector machines (SVM) in classical and/orquantum AI models. For example, to facilitate generating an ensemble AImodel comprising a classical AI model and a quantum AI model and/orcomputing probability scores of a dataset based on the ensemble AImodel, quantum computing component 202 can compute a quantum kernel(e.g., a quantum kernel matrix) using a quantum kernel library and canfurther compute one or more quantum support vectors.

As referenced herein, a kernel method can map data of a dataset intohigher dimensional spaces to facilitate improved separation (e.g.,classification) of such data. In some embodiments, based on a pair ofdata points x and z, a kernel function k can be defined ask(x,z)=ϕ(x)^(T)ϕ(z), where ϕ can be a feature map function, and T can bea transpose of a vector. In these embodiments, there are no constraintson the form of this mapping ϕ(x) could be infinite. In some embodiments,quantum computing component 202 can compute the dot product betweenunknown and support vectors corresponding to one or more quantum AImodels. In some embodiments, quantum computing component 202 can computeinner products that can provide a measure of similarity. In someembodiments, such inner product in a two-dimensional (2D) space between2 vectors of unit length can return the cosine of the angle between suchvectors, which can indicate how far apart they are. For instance, ifthey are parallel, their inner product is 1 (e.g., completely similar).Conversely, in another example, if they are perpendicular (e.g.,completely dissimilar) their inner product is 0, and thus, should notcontribute to the correct AI model (e.g. classifier, learner).

In some embodiments, ensemble system 102 (e.g., quantum computingcomponent 202, classical computing component 204, etc.) can implement akernel trick that can provide a bridge from linearity to non-linearityto any algorithm. In some embodiments, such a kernel trick can beexpressed solely in terms of dot products between two vectors. Forexample, ensemble system 102 (e.g., quantum computing component 202,classical computing component 204, etc.) can implement one or more shiftinvariant kernels such as, for instance, Gaussian radial basis function(RBF) and/or a Laplacian, as defined by equations (1) and (2) below. Insome embodiments, ensemble system 102 (e.g., quantum computing component202, classical computing component 204, etc.) can map input data into ahigher-dimensional space, where a linear algorithm operating in such ahigher-dimensional space can behave non-linearly in the original inputspace.

k ^(lap)=exp(^(−∥x−z∥)/σ)  (2)

where:

k^(rbf) and k^(lap) can be Radial Basis Function and Laplacian kernels,respectively;

In some embodiments, ensemble system 102 (e.g., quantum computingcomponent 202, classical computing component 204, etc.) can implementone or more kernel machines such as, for example, support vectormachines (SVM) comprising support vectors (e.g., as illustrated in FIG.6A), where such support vector machines can approximate any functionbased on a large quantity of training data. In some embodiments,ensemble system 102 (e.g., quantum computing component 202, classicalcomputing component 204, etc.) can overcome computational complexity ofkernel methods applied to a large-scale problem, where data of alarge-scale problem cannot be separated by a linear function. Forexample, ensemble system 102 (e.g., quantum computing component 202,classical computing component 204, etc.) can overcome computationalcomplexity of kernel methods applied to a large-scale problem byformulating such a problem as a quadratic programming problem (e.g.,mapping a function such as, for instance, a linear function to quadraticas illustrated in FIG. 6B). In these embodiments, such a quadraticprogramming problem can comprise a time complexity of O(m³) and a spacecomplexity of O(m²), where m can denote the number of training samples.

In some embodiments, ensemble system 102 (e.g., quantum computingcomponent 202, classical computing component 204, etc.) can implement asupport vector machine as a constrained optimization problem, forexample, to maximize the margin illustrated in FIG. 6A. For example,ensemble system 102 (e.g., quantum computing component 202, classicalcomputing component 204, etc.) can implement a support vector machine asa constrained optimization problem that can yield a dual quadraticprogram that only uses access to the kernel K({right arrow over(x)}_(i),{right arrow over (x)}_(j)) for {right arrow over (x)}_(i) intraining set T, where such a constrained optimization problem can bedefined by equation (3) below:

$\begin{matrix}{{L_{D}(\alpha)} = {{\sum\limits_{i \in T}^{\;}\alpha_{i}} - {\frac{1}{2}{\sum\limits_{i,{j \in T}}^{\;}{k_{i}k_{j}\alpha_{i}\alpha_{j}{K\left( {{\overset{->}{x}}_{i},{\overset{->}{x}}_{j}} \right)}}}}}} & (3)\end{matrix}$

where:

α_(i) denotes the weight corresponding to a support vector (e.g., wheremost of the weights are zero); and

k_(i) denotes the corresponding label of a training sample

In some embodiments, α_(i)*>0 can correspond to support vectors and thedecision function can be defined by equation (4) below:

{tilde over (m)}({right arrow over (s)})=sign(Σ_(i∈N) _(S) α_(i) k _(i)K({right arrow over (x)}_(i) ,{right arrow over (s)})+b)  (4)

where:

In some embodiments, ensemble system 102 (e.g., quantum computingcomponent 202, classical computing component 204, etc.) can implementquantum enhanced feature spaces, where quantum support vector machinescan offer advantages over conventional (e.g., classical) support vectormachines if the quantum feature map leads to a kernel that cannot beefficiently calculated classically (e.g., via a classical computer). Forexample, ensemble system 102 (e.g., quantum computing component 202,classical computing component 204, etc.) can implement one or morequantum support vector machines based on equations (5) and (6) belowand/or quantum feature map 600 c depicted in FIG. 6C.

In another example, ensemble system 102 cangenerate and/or execute a classical AI model to identify one or morecomplex training datasets and/or complex classification tasks thatcannot be executed efficiently and/or effectively by such a classical AImodel (e.g., due to computational cost). In this example, based on suchidentification, ensemble system 102 can generate and/or execute aquantum AI model to classify such complex training dataset(s) and/orperform such complex classification task(s). In another example,ensemble system 102 can apply a fast-match approach using only one ormore classical AI models or only one or more quantum AI models to reducesearch space (e.g., to reduce 100 classes to 10 classes, therebyreducing the amount of data (e.g., features) that must be input to aquantum computer). In this example, based on such reduction of searchspace, ensemble system 102 can apply a detailed-match approach bygenerating and/or implementing an ensemble AI model comprising one ormore classical AI models and/or one or more quantum AI models to make afinal decision using high-dimensional computation techniques of aquantum computing device.

In some embodiments, ensemble system 102 can provide technicalimprovements to a processing unit (e.g., processor 106) associated witha classical computing device (e.g., classical computing component 204)and/or a quantum computing device (e.g., quantum computing component202, a quantum computer, a quantum processor, quantum hardware, etc.).For example, by implementing one or more classical AI models based onall data of a training dataset, implementing one or more quantum AImodels based on a subset of the training dataset, and implementing anensemble AI model comprising one or more classical AI models and one ormore quantum AI models (e.g., where such an ensemble AI model can begenerated based on a quantum kernel matrix), ensemble system 102 canreduce processing time and/or processing workload of such a processingunit (e.g., processor 106), thereby facilitating improved processingperformance of such a processing unit. In this example, based onimplementing such an ensemble AI model, ensemble system 102 can furtherfacilitate improved probability scores of the training dataset.

It should be appreciated that suchsimultaneous multi-operational execution is beyond the capability of ahuman mind. It should also be appreciated that ensemble system 102 caninclude information that is impossible to obtain manually by an entity,such as a human user.
